I try to get greens into Abigail’s breakfasts because she doesn’t have molars yet so iron-rich leafy greens are hard for her to eat. The hemp hearts add extra iron and a bit of protein as well. The oatmeal is quite delicious and naturally sweet; I’m happy eating this too!
I baked this in a 9×9 pan but you could also do it in a regular or large muffin tin; just decrease the baking time. I like to serve finger-sized pieces because she will attempt to put the entirety of whatever unit I give her in her mouth!
